Golf Mk4

Voltage supply
Voltage supply
When retrofitting a transmitter/receiver unit in the vehicle the battery is used to connect the positive and negative wire.
In addition, the wiring harness must be manufactured:
t  Positive voltage supply via a red wire with 2.5 mm cross-section.
t  Negative voltage supply via a brown wire with 2.5 mm cross-section.
The positive wire must have a fuse which must be located very close to the battery. For this purpose, a fuse holder must be secured next to the battery. The positive and negative wires must be encased together in a single insulating tube.
Appropriate connections must be attached to wires on the battery side.
Proceed according to unit's operating manual on side of unit.
The additional wiring must be routed separately from vehicle wiring, and a distance of at least 10 cm must be maintained.
  Note
t  Some telephone systems and two-way radios require an additional terminal 15 (ignition). In this case, a black wire with 1.5 mm cross-section must be routed from the transmitter/receiver unit to terminal 15a → Current flow diagrams, Electrical fault finding and Fitting locations.
t  Ensure wiring connections are not routed parallel to the standard wiring.
